Should I know more about Hinduism/Buddhism than the layman going into this book? If not necessary, would it at least help me have a better understanding of the underlying themes throughout the book?

I am but a mere plebian Westerner. Filthy, uncultured swine.

Catch-22 is the first book I enjoyed reading. It slowed down at the end a little, but not disappointing by any stretch.

You want disappointing? This book was boring as shit. I wasted a whole day on this thing.

I started reading this. What can I expect?

I need a bit of motivation to keep reading.

Just finished pic related.

Was this is intended as something you read before or after to know a lot about Buddhism? Are you supposed to understand what Siddhartha realized at the end or not?

Sid's dad tells him to come back whether or not he finds truth in his journey to enlightenment. Sid promises to do so, saying he will always obey his father. And then he never even mentions his dad again. What's up with that?
